About this property
Casa Rio Tortuga - Colibri Casita - Adults Only - Newly Built
Casa Rio Tortuga is nestled on the Tortuga River in the less-touristy village of Ojochal. This un-touched village boasts wonderful restaurants, waterfalls and tropical beaches. Located almost directly between Sierpe to the south and Dominical to the north there’s bountiful discoveries awaiting the adventurer! Our casitas are beautifully outfitted with one queen bed, porch area, and a private bathroom. Casitas are adjoined by a well-styled shared outdoor kitchen with seating for dining, entertaining, or enjoying a cocktail.

About the host
Hosted by Aaron Kabobel
I met Costa Rica in January of 2021. I had Covid the previous October and the country having just re-opened, allowed travelers with the antibodies to come visit. A country where tourism is a huge part of their livelihood, I fell in love.
I immediately canceled my February Florida trip ( I’ve been avoiding Michigan winters for years now) and stayed until early March that year. People here are kind, considerate and love nature. The toxic political divide, toxic food, and loss of decorum in the north made me realize I needed a change. In November of 2023 I left that behind and am enjoying the Pura Vida lifestyle.

Why they chose this property
In January of ‘23 I explored the pacific coast and discovered the OSA region where the rainforest hills meet the ocean. Where waterfalls, flora and fauna abound.
The idea of what I always thought Costa Rica would be. Ojochal is tucked up off Ruta 34 and is a planned neighborhood divided into phases by a French developer. It’s a village in the jungle and is beautiful. You don’t hear or see the buses and trucks and human pollution. Rivers, ocean, majestic trees, birds, turtles, butterflies, monkeys all abound. A true paradise. Phase 10 is a gated community nestled back in Ojochal and is beautifully relaxing.

What makes this property unique
This unique property was designed by me, a retired school teacher who loves entertaining and touring. You’ll be able to relax on your porch or outdoor kitchen, take a hike down to the Tortuga river or chill by the pool with a cocktail. If you’re adventuring, which there’s a plethora of options, you can choose to tour on an ATV or go deep sea fishing, scuba diving, or explore a region by hiking or by boat. Zip lines, horseback riding, beaching or water falling and five star dining are also on the menu of many activities and opportunities! Surfs up. Come visit! Pura Vida.
